The .wav to .txt code analyses the soundwaves and recreates it into coordinates that would build an round spiral with the sound information readable for an Vinyl player on it. | ||

With this txt | With this .txt file full of coordinates im feeding an Processing code wich is turning them in an actual Vector file. Cause of the big amount of data the path gets split into 7 separate .pdf files. | ||

One big problem of cutting the file into an real slice of an tree trunk are the different degrees of hardness of the year rings of the tree, the laser will cut into weaker areas deeper than into harder and older ones. | One big problem of cutting the file into an real slice of an tree trunk are the different degrees of hardness of the year rings of the tree, the laser will cut into weaker areas deeper than into harder and older ones. | ||
